Pro's vs Joes

Ok, so I was sitting in on a pick-up game of basketball at the church, there were quite a few people there. I saw everybody gazing and glaring in awe as player after player shot the basketball and swooshed it through the hoop. But this isn't what surprised me. What surprised me was that, that basketball game kinda looks like some peoples faith and walk with GOD. We sit on the sidelines and watch other people do the work because we are to afraid of what might happen to us if we step out of our comfort zone. Does this sound like you? WE CARE TO MUCH ABOUT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK ABOUT US!! News flash! Life isn't about what we want, it's about what GOD wants. If we live our life for GOD so many things would be different.This kind of reminds me of my night at work tonight. There was this elderly lady who was struggling to get up and couldn't find the strength to stand. I could have just ignored it, but i walked over to her and asked if she needed help standing. She said she was fine but i helped her anyway. In situations like this, why do we wait fo other people to do the job fo us? It doesn't make sense to me. We are not benchwarmers, we were meant to go out and spread the word of GOD and to change the world, whether it be through actions or word. Get off the bench and stop being a spectator and do something.
